docker run

docker run [OPTIONS] IMAGE [COMMAND] [ARG...]

Pulls the image, creates a new container, and starts it in one command.

Commonly used options:

Example:

docker run -d `
--name mysqlserver `        # container name is mysqlserver
-e 'ACCEPT_EULA=Y' `        # SQL Server environment variable, not a Docker variable
-e 'SA_PASSWORD=Pa55w@rd' ` # SA password
-e 'MSSQL_PID=Express' `	# also a SQL Server environment variable; default MSSQL_PID is 'Developer'
-p 1433:1433 `              # map host port 1433 to container port 1433. host:container
-v c:\Users\Doosan\sqlserver\data:/var/opt/mssql/data ` # mount host directory into the container
-v c:\Users\Doosan\sqlserver\log:/var/opt/mssql/log `
-v c:\Users\Doosan\sqlserver\secrets:/var/opt/mssql/secrets `
mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2019-latest  # image to use

Each line ends with a space and a backtick. This is just PowerShell line continuation so a long command can be written across multiple readable lines.

docker run -d `
--name mymongo `
-p 27017:27017 `
-e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=mongoadmin `
-e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret `
-v c:\Users\Doosan\mongo:/data/db `

docker run -d `
--name mypostgres `
-p 5432:5432 `
-e POSTGRES_USER=doosan ` # if omitted, the default user is postgres
-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres `
-e PGDATA=/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata `
-e tz=Asia/Seoul `
-v c:\Users\Doosan\postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data `
